Jumanji--the girls wear very non-tzniut clothing, so not sure if that's an issue, but basically clean and a lot of adventure.

Gifted (not Gifted Hands, hah!), about a very academically advanced girl.

On Netflix, Enola Holmes.

If you don't mind a X-mas theme, Princess Switch on Netflix.

If you like bad films, try Summer Magic. It's awful. I loved it.

The Hayley Mills one or the Lindsay Lohan one? The former has a father awkwardly starting to try to explain the birds and the bees, and one of the pranks involves Susan getting the back of her dress cut out.The Lindsay Lohan one has one of the twins (I don't remember which) telling Meredith that she is not the right match because not everything is about s*x.

DD 15 and I are watching Lost in Space together. 2 seasons, 10 episodes each on Netflix. Each episode is almost an hour, we normally watch one together motzei Shabbat. We are both really enjoying it!

As far as I remember there are 2 kisses in the whole show, one between awkward teens (and many episodes later they have a brief conversation about how that was the first time either of them had kissed anyone), and one between a married couple. The women wear 'regular' non-tznius clothes like t-shirts and trousers, maybe a tank top occasionally. There is a short scene in the second season in which it is implied that two women are married parents, but so subtly that someone non-aware might take them for friends or sisters.

Positive themes: family togetherness, not giving up, second-chances, becoming a better person. And complex ideas (more developed in the second season) about free-will, humanity, sentience, exploitation. My main beef with the show is that all the female characters are too skinny. They are also intelligent, independent, multi-dimensional (and a really creepy villain), but I wish there was a diversity of body types.
